The mission of Film Camp is to teach teens to be able to write, shoot and edit their own films without making major mistakes. Films made at camp are intended to be good enough for students to include them in college applications.

Film Camp was held for five full days at the Cape May City Elementary School. Professional instructors supported by full time volunteers taught teens the fundamentals of filmmaking. Hands-on experience was provided in screenwriting, storyboarding, acting, directing, cinematography and editing. On Friday evening the students and their families and friends watched the completed films.
